Business Support

Business Start Up

As a leading firm of Accountants in Essex, Lambert Chapman LLP provide a full Business Start-Up Service including business start-up advice and systems that will help you through the financial aspect of starting up in business.

Most people who start up in business do so because they have a good business proposition and the enterprise and commitment to see it through, not because they are experts in the legal, financial and fiscal aspects of running a business. Indeed, these matters can often seem daunting, and even off-putting, to the budding entrepreneur.

The good news is that you do not need to be an expert in these fields to succeed in business. All you need is the support of a team of trained experts. That's where we fit in - bring us your business ideas and we'll help you to evaluate them in a constructive and realistic manner. We can also help you:

Decide on the most suitable structure for your business - sole trader, partnership, or limited company

Prepare a business plan, cashflow projections, budgets, and trading forecasts

Assess your finance requirements, advise on the best sources of finance, and draw up the necessary proposals

Establish a good working relationship with your bank

Complete any registration procedures with Companies House, Inland Revenue, or Customs and Excise

Deal with company secretarial issues

Set up a recording system for your internal use and for complying with statutory requirements
